Solution:

7 Races.

Solution:

Since both of them lied in all three statements, this means that the opposite is true. So the changed statements will be:

Poornima: I am surely over 30.
Riya: I am not 28 and you are at most 4 years older to me.
Poornima: You are at most 28.

Poornima is 31 years old at least as can be concluded from the first statement. Combining the second and the third statement, we can accomplish that Riya is at most 28 years old. Hence, the possible ages of Poornima and Riya can be:

Poornima: 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36...
Riya: 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27...

Now, reading the second statement again, we can conclude that the difference between the ages of Poornima and Riya is at max 4 years.
This brings us the result that Poornima is 31 years old whereas Riya is 27 years old.

Solution:

Let us denote the number of boys as 'p' and the number of girls as 'q'.

The first statement says that each boy has equal numbers of brothers and sisters
(p - 1) = q
=> p - q = 1 ------- (a)

The second statement says that every girl has twice as many brothers as that of sisters
2 (q - 1) = p
=> 2q - p = 2 ------- (b)

By solving (a) and (b)
We get q as 3 and p as 4.

Therefore, there are 4 boys and 3 girls in the family.

Solution:

18

Explanation:
More minutes implies more tea.
More women implies more tea.

The time become twice (3 minutes / 1.5 minutes).
women become six times (9 / 1.5).

Number of tea = 2 * 6 * Original(1.5)
= 18

Solution:

The three numbers are:
-3, -1 and 1.

Solution:

This problem might seem complex but it can be solved completely using simple logics. We know that the bike is twice as fast as walking and thus the time taken by to reach hotel is equal to the time taken on foot to travel half the way. Thus, biking the whole way will be faster than taking the train if the train's speed is not infinite (not possible).

Solution:

The slot number in which the car is parked is 87. Just invert the image and you will know why.

Solution:

1/36

Explanation:
The number of possibilities for the first as well as the second dice are 6 and 6 respectively. Therefore the total possibilities or outcome are 6 * 6 = 36.
Out of 36 outcomes, we need only one case i.e. the first gives 2 and the second gives 5.
Therefore, the probability will be 1 on 36 or 1/36.

Solution:

Solution is below

Solution:

Step one: First you will have to make 3 trips of 1,000 apples 333 miles. Then you will be left with 2,001 apples and 667 miles to go.

Step two: Next you will have to take 2 trips of 1,000 apples 500 miles. In this manner you will be left with 1,000 apples and 167 miles to go (you have to leave an apple behind).

Step three: At last, you will have to travel the last 167 miles with one load of 1,000 apples and you will be left with 833 apples when you reach the town
